PATTERN: See diagrams A.1 to A.6.

DECREASE TIP:
Work 1 dc around next ch-space but wait with last pull through, work
next dc around next ch-space (do not work 3 ch between dc), on last pull
through, pull yarn through all 3 loops on hook.

CROCHET TIP (applies to sleeve):
After last dc on the round, continue to next round with 1 dc in next
ch-space (= first ch-space on next round). NOTE: Insert 1 marker at the
beg of round between last ch and first dc on the next round, move the
marker upwards. NOTE: MAKE SURE NOT TO DISPLACE THE MARKER.
----------------------------------------------------------

JACKET WORKED IN A CIRCLE:
Worked in the round from the middle and outwards.

Work 4 ch with Cotton Merino on hook size 4 mm / G/6 and form a ring with 1 sl st.
Then work pattern according to diagram A.1 (= 6 repetitions in width)
NOTE: A.x shows how every round beg and end, and is in addition to
pattern. REMEMBER THE CROCHET GAUGE! When entire A.1 has been worked
vertically (= 132 dc), continue as follows: Work * A.2 (= 11 dc), A.3 (=
11 dc) *, repeat from *-* 6 times in total. Work up to and with arrow
in diagram - see arrow for your size, there are now 228-252-264 sts on
round. Work next round as follows: Continue to work over the first
34-36-38 sts, work 36-40-44 ch, and skip the next 36-40-44 sts (=
armhole), work until 70-76-82 sts remain, work 36-40-44 ch and skip the
next 36-40-44 sts (= armhole), continue to work over the last 34-36-38
sts. On next round continue according to pattern, work pattern as in
diagram around ch-spaces in each side. When A.2 and A.3 have been
worked, there are 312 dc on round. Continue with A.4 (= 39 repetitions
on round). First round in A.4 shows last round in A.2/A.3, do not work
this round. Continue to work as follows: Work * A.5 (= 26 dc), A.6 (= 26
dc) *, repeat from *-* 6 times in total. When A.5/A.6 have been worked,
there are 600 sts on round (150 dc with 3 ch between each). Finish size
S/M here.

Size M/L -XXL/XXXL: Work 2-4 more rounds as last round in A.5/A.6 = 162-174 dc with 3 ch between.

FRONT PIECES:
Work back and forth in the one side with short rows. Cut the yarn, skip
the first 13-16-19 dc on round, then work over the next 49 dc +
ch-spaces as follows (insert a marker here):
Work ch 3, skip 1 ch-space, 1 sc around next ch-space, 3 ch (these 2
ch-spaces are no longer worked), 1 dc around next ch-space, work pattern
as before until 2 ch-spaces remain (i.e. ch-spaces between dc, do not
work around these 2 ch-spaces anymore), turn piece. Continue the short
rows like this, AT THE SAME TIME inc 1 dc + 3 sts in the middle ch-space
on every row (work 1 dc + 3 ch + 1 dc in this space). Continue with inc
and dec on every row until piece measures 15 cm / 6'' from marker.

Skip 26-32-38 dc, then work short rows over the next 49 dc (13-16-19 dc
remain on round). Work the same way as in the other side.

CROCHET EDGE:
Work an edge around the entire circle as follows: 1 sc around first
ch-space, * ch 3, 1 sc around next ch-space *, repeat from *-* and
finish with 1 sl st in first sc. Fasten off.

SLEEVES:
Worked in the round, top down. Beg mid under one armhole, work 1 sc
around first ch-space, 6 ch (= 1 dc + 3 ch), skip first dc and work 1 dc
around next ch-space, * ch 3, 1 dc around next ch-space *, repeat from
*-* the entire round (work 1 dc + 3 ch around dc in corners), finish
round with 1 dc around first ch 6, then continue to work in the round
without finishing it – READ CROCHET TIP = 21-23-25 dc + 21-23-25
ch-spaces.

CROCHET EDGE SLEEVES:
Crochet an edge around the sleeves as follows: 1 sc around first
ch-space, * ch 3, 1 sc around next ch-space *, repeat from *-* and
finish with 1 sl st in first sc. Fasten off. Work the other sleeve the
same way.

We take pride in providing patterns that are correct and easy
to understand. All patterns are translated from Norwegian and you can
always check the original pattern for measurements and calculations.
If we get a report of a potential error, we will review the pattern as
soon as possible, and make the correction if necessary. This will
normally be done within 2-3 days. If no correction is made, it means
that we couldn't find any error/mistake. We then recommend you to get in
contact with the store where you bought your yarn, or try to get help
in the forums.
